The goal of every overwhelmed woman is to manage her time and energy in a way that decreases stress and allows for more recharging, more rest, and more fulfillment in her days... But with many women, it can be hard to ask for help in order to make time in your day for the things - and people - that bring you joy.

Oftentimes, it comes down to not wanting to be a burden… or not wanting to seem selfish. Even the most successful women sometimes get caught in the loop of people-pleasing and find it hard to ask for what they need or want. And when others don’t know… our needs and wants just keep getting put on the back burner again and again.

Over the last year, I've been feeling uninspired with time management tricks for finding more “balance” in my life, because no matter how hard I try for that perfect “balance” - nothing seems to do the trick.

As you can imagine, this has left very little room for creating routines, systems, and habits that feel exciting and new - and create more space in my days.

However, in trying to get my mojo back, I've discovered that I was making it way too complicated!  Turns out - the simpler, the better.

If you're in a similar place and have been feeling more and more overwhelmed with daily life but not sure what to do about it, you’re going to love this post. I’m sharing three new time management tips that are simple, easy, and working for me!

What if there were ways to take care of yourself, tap into what brings you Joy, and still manage to care for those around you?

I’m not suggesting we can do it all… But I am suggesting we can do the things that are most important to us - and let go of some of the others without letting anyone down.

There are days when life just kinda sucks - but there’s no reason to stay in that space. A fulfilled life, a joy-filled life, a connected life - you deserve this. Try these three simple steps to getting back on track - once you know how to do it, these strategies will work every time!

What do you do to recharge each and every day? What do you do to maintain your energy? What do you do to guard your time?

What if the dream is too big? What if, in reality, it’s impossible? What if I can’t actually make it happen?

What’s that quote? “What if I fall? Ah, but what if you FLY?”

Is there such a thing as “too big” of a dream? Isn’t that what dreaming is for? To aim for the stars?

Even in the midst of summer chaos, I find myself looking for challenges and new-ness. I look forward to getting out of my space, my routine, and my comfort zone. I seek new ways to push myself. And this practice energizes me like no other!

I read a Facebook post last week that started out “Can we talk about the fact that moms get overstimulated and it’s mistaken for anger?”

I don’t know if I’ve ever felt more seen than when I read that simple sentence. Seriously.
